Time is getting short to enter popular Monmouth at the Team show

Hunter entries for the Monmouth at the Team show Aug. 14-20 closed for the most part at the August 1 deadline, but there are still openings in some areas.

Big Eq for both Monday and Wednesday will stay open, breeding classes on Monday are open, National Hunter Derby entries are open for the Tuesday (and they can take a few more A/O hunters that day) and flat classes only for the Outreach classes on the Friday.

The 2016 debut of the show at the U.S. Equestrian Team Foundation in Gladstone was wildly successful, with the hospitality matching the caliber of the competition. Donations for the Silent Auction to benefit the USET Building Fund are still welcome. Enter at www.horseshowing.com and check out the show at www.monmouthattheteam.com.
